ABSTRACT
RATIONALE Cervical chondrocutaneous branchial remnants are rare, benign, congenital anomalies, frequently seen bilaterally. PATIENT CONCERNS Here, we report the case of a 4-month-old female infant who presented with bilateral lower neck skin tag since birth. DIAGNOSIS AND INTERVENTIONS:
The patient underwent mass excision. The final pathological diagnosis was bilateral cervical chondrocutaneous branchial remnants with hyaline cartilage.OUTCOMES:
No complications were observed after excision. One-year follow-up revealed no recurrence. LESSONS Bilateral chondrocutaneous branchial remnants are rare anomalies. They are often associated with cardiac or genitourinary abnormalities. Therefore, additional preoperative imaging of the abdomen and heart are recommended.
